    I finally got around to re-stringing #262 with DR Nickel lo-riders. I'd been thinking about it for while and I'm glad I did :) She really responded well - more pronounced 'mwah', swell seems to start earlier and mids are a bit more distinct. For what I use 262 for, it's a great match! Tom-...

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I do appreciate your insight ;) I'm happy with the way 262 is sounding right now. The Hi-Beams give her a very articulate voice. Thing is, I'm seeing her role in the type of music I play as being more 'melodic' as opposed to 'percussive'...does that make...

    Xerogh: They might be related :D !!! 262 is getting Bart/Bart. Tom and I decided to place them in a rather traditional location since I won't be doing a lot of slapping, instead more relative to a melodic style of playing. I'm really cranked about that Diamondwood (see Pitbill's pics), it ought...
